Английская Википедия:Exchangeable bond
Exchangeable bond (or XB) is a type of hybrid security consisting of a straight bond and an embedded option to exchange the bond for the stock of a company other than the issuer (usually a subsidiary or company in which the issuer owns a stake) at some future date and under prescribed conditions.[1] An exchangeable bond is different from a convertible bond. A convertible bond gives the holder the option to convert bond into shares of the issuer.
The pricing of an exchangeable bond is similar to that of convertible bond,[2] splitting it in straight debt part and an embedded option part and valuing the two separately.
Pricing
Price of exchangeable bond = price of straight bond + price of option to exchange
- Price of an exchangeable bond is always higher than the price of a straight bond because the option to exchange adds value to an investor.
- Yield on an exchangeable bond is lower than the yield on a straight bond.
